Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-8th), whose district is home to NOAA’s Silver Spring headquarters, said Wednesday that, beyond the impact on workers, the cuts to the agency represent a safety issue. “[Maryland], like the rest of America … depends on the weather information and forecasts that are coming from NOAA,” Raskin said. He also said that Maryland is uniquely affected, both as a coastal state at risk of severe weather and as the home of many of NOAA’s workers. “We are profoundly affected, both as beneficiaries of NOAA’s work and also as people who help deliver it,” Raskin said.

"About 11,000 Maryland workers have already lost or are about to lose their jobs, and future actions could bring that number of job losses up to 28,000, said Robert J. Rehrmann, the state’s top economic forecasting expert." https://lnkd.in/eB5Tg3P2

The recent wave of federal government layoffs has already impacted nearly 1,300 Marylanders, many of whom are Baltimore residents. If this trend continues,10,000 Maryland residents could become unemployed. It will take partnerships from our state government leaders, the private sector, and local nonprofits to provide support and resources. https://lnkd.in/egJfT99j

In light of Trump's newest executive orders calling for an overhaul of the federal workforce starting with DEI departments across agencies, we understand the fear of federal workers who suddenly find their careers in jeopardy. This order could significantly impact Maryland residents who make up nearly 20% of the Federal workforce. Baltimore Corps stands ready?to support efforts that mitigate the displacement?of hard-working Marylanders seeking to ensure job security. "Federal workers, meanwhile, are scrambling to make sense of the decrees, which may apply differently to each agency, depending on the person in charge and the fine print of union contracts. The return-to-office executive order in particular mystified employees and their supervisors, who are trying to parse whether it also affects telework, which is when employees who are based in an office work from home. The night Trump issued the executive order, Google searches for “federal workers return to office” spiked by more than 600 percent — with the most interest in the D.C. region, where 15 percent of federal workers are based." #Jobs #FederalJobs #Maryland #Employment Read more: https://lnkd.in/eMsefD6w
